Abstract excerpt
Nuclear ribosomal RNA genes provide markers for retrieving phylogeny at a variety of taxonomic levels. The internal transcribed spacers (ITS), separating the coding regions, evolve relatively rapidly and may be useful for reconstructing phylogenies at the specific and generic levels. ITS-1, located between the 18S and 5.8S genes, may be especially valuable at the species level and below. However, despite the...
